Cats and Technology

January 2022

Cats Love Technology

Watch a cat video with cat audio and they want to check on the intruder. Or who might be their new friend? Depends on if they love other cats or not. Our cat Andy loved cats, but not people.

Cats At Christmas 2021

The cats and us this year. They are getting into the spirit. This will be Lily’s second Christmas with us and Lucy’s first.

Rethinking the Christmas Decorations

.
Had to put a few decorations away. Cats in the past enjoyed the colored silky thread covered styrofoam ball ornaments. Sure, I trimmed them; they were looking shabby. Kept the good ones and placed them in a container with decorative pine and holly holiday picks.
.
Lily flips one out of the container. Had a fantastic time batting the ball across the floor. My heart sank when she unraveled half and it was in her mouth. Much like a wad of cotton candy. Ran over and grabbed it. Only to realize I didn’t get every piece. Hard as I tried, I couldn’t get her close enough to rescue the last piece.

Cats in Healing

December 2021

Cats help to heal

I adore cats. After Molly’s death in May 2020, the loneliness of not hearing those purrs and meows became overwhelming.

 

Life kept us busy during May, June, and July, so not having 4 legged little ones around made it easier. But as the summer dragged on, the missing laughter that the little creatures bring became intense.

 

December 5, 2020, rolled around, and we picked up our first bundle of joy. Lily a 9-month-old chocolate point Siamese. Winning her over took a while. A year later and she has become a blessing. She has her only little quirks, and we adjust to her whims. (link)

Cat Diet Improved

November 2021
.
This short post is in reference to previous post.
.
This is just a quick summary of what has been implemented. My cats weigh 7 to 8 lbs each
.
♦ Raw ground sirloin 1 tbsp each.
.
♦ Cooked chicken thighs a few scoops on top of cat food. Substituted a raw chicken heart or chicken liver (about 1 or 2 tsp.)
.
Olive oil 1/2 tsp per day (AM)
.
Lysine 1/8 tsp per day, until improvement in both cats, then 1/8 tsp twice a week.
.
Taurine 1 scoop per day per cat. No side effects for giving too much. ( Of course a person needs to be realistic in the amount.)
.
Oratene Toothpaste Gel after each meal.
.
SeaMeal 1/8 tsp twice a day.
.
Bone meal seems to be about 1/8 tsp per 1 oz of food. Since I am adding cans, I probably only need 1/8 tsp per day per cat.
.
Note: Always consult your vet. This is only my experience for my cats. I am not a vet and can’t advise you how to feed your cats.

Stomatitis in Cats

 

Stomatitis sounds like something to do with the stomach… but it is not. Inflammation of the mucous lining of any of the structures in the mouth, which may involve the cheeks, gums, tongue, lips, and roof or floor of the mouth. The word “stomatitis” literally means inflammation of the mouth. (reference: Medical Dictionary)

.

Gingivitis

.

Gingivitis is inflammation of the gums. Bleeding is a primary symptom, and other symptoms include swelling, redness, pain, and difficulty in chewing. (reference: Medical Dictionary)
